95.5 Taming Real Skill. What to use?

I am wondering, what pets can I begin taking into combat at this level?

My character is a Mage/Tamer (95.5 Taming and GM Lore), so my jewels are oriented towards enhancing my magery abilities (although I have several +15 taming jewels should I need them). Any thoughts, or am I stuck until I hit GM?

Without using any skill jewels you could control a rune beetle and a bake often enough and its a great combo that deals lots of damage.You can probably use a mare too ,try diferent combinations.

My general ballpark guestimate when it comes to what I can control is to say roughly 5.0 skill above the min taming requirement. I tend to double check with the control calculator as my younger tamers move up the ranks, but that's how I look at it :D

I'd suggest 2 kitsune and a runey can match up with them too. My youngest tamers still favour 2 kits and a frenzy or ethy mount. Kits are such a fun and useful pet, and extremely versatile. Mares I'd wait till GM taming, as you're close to the min taming requirement of 95.1. Check with the control calculator, but I wouldn't go out with less than 90% control. Pets can be fickle with control at the best of times, so you can guarantee that failure % hits when you least need it!
